Palm Beach International Airport Runway 13-31

WGI was contracted to provide High-Definition Laser Scanning for Runway 13- 31 at the Palm Beach International Airport to detect imperfections in the runway surface. A Digital Terrain Model of the scanned area was provided for use in the resurfacing calculations. Due to the airport’s high traffic volume during daylight hours, the project was performed overnight for safety purposes. The operation required communication with Air Traffic Control, as well as Homeland Security. The final deliverables included a detailed location survey depicting all fixed improvements, cracks, and depressed areas in the runway surface, as well as the existing runway striping.
